I promised ages ago I'd start uploading conference slides/papers and publications and then, as is so often the case, I forgot all about it. So belatedly, here are a couple of pieces I wrote on sex work in 2009 and 2008. The first, entitled 'Male Sex Work and the Internet Effect: Time to Re-evaluate the Criminal Law' was published back in 2009 and explores sex work identities on the hook up/social networking site Gaydar, together with legal responses (or lack thereof) to the increasing role of the Internet in sex work. The second piece is a much smaller piece entitled 'Sex Work in Cyberspace: Who Pays the Price?'. It represents my first thoughts on the last UK government's approach to sex work, the role of the Internet (with an emphasis on female sex workers this time) and I also discuss the infamous Mark Oaten incident which had a life-changing impact on both Oaten and the male sex worker involved. It might also be the first law scholarly article to feature a recipe for Parkin cake.
